When Savelyev was 7, his adoptive mother in the United States sent him back to Moscow with a one-way ticket and a note saying he had emotional problems and she could no longer care for him. This and some other high-profile incidents are partly partly behind legislation pending in Moscow that would ban adoptions of Russian children by Americans. (AP Photo/Misha Japaridze, File)
